What I Love Most About Dyeing

What I Love Most About Dyeing

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about what I love about dyeing.  When I first started seven years ago, it was all about the adventure.  Mixing a riot of colours in the dyepot was wonderful fun and seeing their results on the yarn was even better.  Over time, I incorporated tonals and semi-solids to give SpaceCadet’s customers more choice and better options for complicated and lacey designs.  They’re  repeatable and realiable, and give a great palette for lots of beautiful patterns.

But deep in my soul, what I really love is creating amazing, unpredictable, adventurous colourways that fill my heart with excitement as I pull the yarn out of the dyepots.   You’ll find them in our One-of-a-Kinds, in our Limited Editions, and most of all, in our club yarns.  It’s there that I get to let my creativity run wild — but even better, because I know I’m dyeing for a community of friends.  As I put together the colours, I’m thinking of the club members I’ve gotten to know over the years, either at shows or through email or even through the notes and cards that drop through our letterbox.  Our clubs are really personal for me — and dyeing for our club members is all the more fun because of it!

And so I’ve been looking forward to today for sometime — it’s SpaceMonster Club opening day!  We give exisitng members early bird access and their renewals have been flooding in, so there are fewer spaces available but I’m thrilled to open the club new members today.  It’s always so exciting to have new members to meet and create those wonderful colourways for!  Will you be one of them?

The SpaceMonster Mega Yarn Club, from SpaceCadet

Because we know you love big smooshy yarns, doncha?

There is nothing in the whole world like a skein of lovely, smooshy, thick yarn to make you want to pick it up, squish it… dive right into it! Big, bulky yarns call out to you, beg you to pick them up and press them against your cheek. And when you cast on, they always work up so fast! Big yarns are gorgeous.
